Once everybody's in I'll close it to newcomers, let you all know via this thread and you can decide who you want to administer the league going forward and if you want to change the league name.

Have joined. Thanks.

I vote we keep your name - it's a good one.

just tried this with yahoo, still can't do it.

Yahoo? That's a search engine. Unless you're referring to Axis - but support for that ended in 2013.

What platform are you using Kipper? Try loading the site in Safari, Chrome or Firefox. If you're using some ancient setup it possibly can't communicate with the server database that FPL is using. I can't think of any other reason why the controls wouldn't work.

Hmm...I'm checking now. This might be the reason I can't get on to Wobbly Bits anymore.

Correct. I checked browser and it was out of date and said it may not work on some websites. Renewed it.

Cliquers league is back as it was. Now closed to new entries to stop infiltrators.

Now I'm in the new one created by Billy, but not the clique league.

I'm also not sure if I'll score points for game-week one in the new one.

Oh well, such is life.

You should keep points if you played anywhere in gameweek 1.

T'owd Don is off to a flyer. 84 Points and still a player to play. Well done Rushmore.

There is. It's the old clique league for clique originals and regular BCG posters across the forums.

I don't want to walk with him and share my flask with him now.

Not even to Streatham High Road.

It's so disappointing,,,,,I did hope he would be a man who I could do business with and that it would be the start of me not only removing my cameras from his roof but also the anti-ballistic star wars technology in that nearby tree (now I can't even say what tree). Sorry - my iron lady nuclear capability is not for turning.

Thanks everyone. Just waiting on Ben, Lazzard and Anton Russell now.

However...

I see, after all that, Alf's original league has now been rectified. Except it doesn't include JB Pass and his Shotgun Blues. And I am 20th of 14

Clearly we don't want two identical leagues running concurrently. Especially in view of Steve's reservations below. So presumably we need to delete one. That's several hours of my life I won't get back again. And I don't have that many left

But can we make this the last one, I'm in about 5 BCG leagues now and it could have been 6 if I'd have kept the BCG Super Mega league going

And, yes, the new league is definitely set to begin in week one.

And I only entered because I was assured it would all run smoothly this year!

Done.
Surprisingly, in a league of 13, I'm still lying at 34th.

So which is the 'real' league?
Cliquers or League of Gentlemen??
I'm only in the former.

And the reason being is because last season he didn't post and Alf has deleted him (although, he doesn't seem bothered), despite the fact he has posted twice already in the new season and even offered to help with the "problems." I don't agree with Alf's management of that, as for me, the more the merrier, and he knows that, as we've PMd about JB Pass before.

And don't see why not, and you have 12 members. Godot preferred your name, which I agree with, and I'm certainly not happy with the way the Cliquers has been run so far, and am seriously considering resigning from the Cliquers league.

And, You don't have many years left............how do you think I feel.

As per original clique league conventions I said I'd stick to. Remember the clique element to this or the league's back open to the non posting trophy hunters of a few years back. I'm simply upholding a bit of fair minded inhouse BCG structure and order here. Until I pass the admin onto someone else, which will be today if accepted by the proposed member.

I accept. Which is what I suggested yesterday only you couldn't do it then. Might as well. Having spent all yesterday setting up a replacement league at your request. Seems sensible to have both leagues under the same administrator. Otherwise we'll just end up with split leagues rivalling each other again.

I agree, but the proposed member from last season's thread was Godot. If he now doesn't want it, I'll pass it over to you. Give it till the end of today. The only reason he didn't get it back then was my browser wouldn't let me change administrator. Now, thanks to Godot's intervention, all buttons work.

And if he does want it, I think he has credits in the bank tbh. I've always proposed a rolling change of adminner every season, as long as it's not me again - I'm still doing all the paperwork the FA sent me last me for last season.

That's a joke btw, for anyone not sure what site they're on anymore. oops.
